Let's say that a bunch of PCs just happened to discover a lost ship in the far reaches of a system.
If they just pick up everything that's not nailed down and let the wreck where they found it, there won't be any problem (except if one of these "relics" is clearly recognizable). But what will happen if they want to refit the hulk and get a "free" new (err, used) ship?
I don't remember the 3I laws concerning shipwrecks and lost ships being described somewhere in canon. So, would the PCs become the new legitimate owners of their find, or is it still property of its previous owner(s) (or their heir(s))?
